Due to driver instability with the Intel 7265D chipset I've chosen, ad-hoc networking doesn't work.

I've switched to using normal client-AP architecture

Developments have occurred.

  • Instability potentially entirely caused by bug/malfunctioning 'LAR' feature in Intel wifi
  • Intel removed the lar_disable flag in newer kernels, so the feature cannot be disabled
  • Patching linux is required.
  • I have created a patched linux kernel with the relevant patch
  • I have packaged the patched kernel as an RPM

I now need to test the patch on the chromebooks

If it works:

  • proceed to testing wifi in ibss/ap mode
  • proceed with project as planned.

If it fails:

  • table efforts involving ad-hoc or ap wifi with these chips.
